People’s procuratorial cause has made historic achievements
A century of party history, along with the search for the rule of law, has written a glorious chapter of the rule of law. Our party has always attached importance to the construction of the rule of law and led the people in unremitting exploration. The “Resolution” systematically summarizes the historical achievements and historical changes that have been made in comprehensively governing the country by law since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, and injects strong impetus into the implementation of the rule of law on the new journey and writing a new chapter of comprehensively governing the country by law in the new era.
This year marks the 90th anniversary of the establishment of the people’s procuratorial system under the absolute leadership of the party. The people’s procuratorial system is an important part of the socialist political system and legal system with Chinese characteristics. The 90-year history of people’s procuratorial work under the absolute leadership of the party is integrated into a century of party history and is a microcosm of the party’s leadership of the people to explore and promote the construction of socialist democracy and the rule of law. The party created and continuously explored the people’s procuratorial system in the era of war-torn revolution. In November 1931, the People’s Procuratorate set sail in Red Capital Ruijin. Over the past 90 years, the people’s procuratorial cause has closely followed the party’s sonorous pace in leading revolution, construction, and reform. It has been in the same direction as the development of the party and the country, and has walked with the construction of the rule of law in China. , Traversed an extraordinary road. Especially since the restoration and reconstruction of the procuratorial organs in 1978, with the great progress of reform and opening up, the great achievements of socialist modernization and the continuous advancement of the rule of law, the people’s procuratorial cause has flourished, and the procuratorial organs are playing an increasingly important role in the construction of the party and the country’s rule of law. It has become an indispensable and important force in the construction of my country’s socialist democracy and the rule of law.
In the past 90 years, all the achievements made by the people’s procuratorial cause are the result of the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee. The Party Central Committee has always attached great importance to strengthening the legal supervision of the procuratorial organs, and attached importance to the functioning of the procuratorial organs. Since the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core has further strengthened the party’s absolute leadership over procuratorial work. General Secretary Xi Jinping issued a series of important instructions for procuratorial work, profoundly clarifying the constitutional positioning, main responsibilities, and basic tasks of legal supervision of procuratorial organs, so as to guide the innovation and development of the people’s procuratorial cause and lead the way. In June this year, the Party Central Committee issued the “Opinions of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China on Strengthening the Legal Supervision of Procuratorial Organs in the New Era” (hereinafter referred to as the “Opinions”). The political responsibility and historical responsibility have provided important follow-up for the new and greater development of the procuratorial cause.
So the mirror reflects the shape, and the ancient things know the present. In his important speech on July 1st, General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that we must use history to reflect reality and see the future from a long-term perspective. From the centuries of struggle of the Communist Party of China, we can see why we can succeed in the past and how we can continue to succeed in the future. On the new journey, we will be more determined and more conscious to keep our original mission in mind and create a better future. Our party is determined to make great achievements for the Chinese nation in the future. The 90th anniversary of the establishment of the people’s procuratorial system under the absolute leadership of the party has also stood at a new starting point. The situation, environment, atmosphere, and conditions for performing duties are more favorable for the procuratorial work in the overall situation of the development of the party and the country. Under the strong leadership of the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core, and under the scientific guidance of Xi Jinping’s new era of socialism with Chinese characteristics, the people’s procuratorial work is in its best period of development. This best period not only means unprecedented major development opportunities, but also means unprecedented higher performance requirements. Procuratorial organs across the country must use the “two establishments” to unify thought, unify will, and unify actions, thoroughly study and implement the spirit of the Sixth Plenary Session of the 19th Central Committee of the Party, implement the requirements of the “Opinions”, and follow the party’s centuries-old years and firm pursuit of the rule of law. Absorb wisdom and strength from the people’s procuratorial cause, inherit and continue the red bloodline from the 90-year struggle of the people’s procuratorial cause, strengthen confidence, clarify the direction, learn from history, continue to struggle, live up to the times, live up to the people’s historical responsibility, and have a strong political consciousness , Consciousness of the rule of law, self-consciousness of procuratorial work, with higher quality and active judicial procuratorial performance, striving to start a new journey of people’s procuratorial cause, and making greater contributions to the realization of the second centenary goal.
Strive to start a new journey of people’s procuratorial cause
Always uphold the party’s absolute leadership over procuratorial work. Upholding the party’s leadership is the first historical experience of the party’s century of struggle summarized in the “Resolution”. General Secretary Xi Jinping emphasized that the leadership of the party is the most fundamental guarantee for the socialist rule of law. This major conclusion is a scientific summary of the basic experience of the party leading the people in building the rule of law over the past century. The history of the people’s procuratorial work in the 1990s is a history of loyalty that adheres to the party’s absolute leadership over procuratorial work, and consciously implements and maintains the party’s overall leadership through procuratorial performance. History has shown profoundly: Adhering to the party’s absolute leadership over procuratorial work is the highest principle and greatest advantage of procuratorial work, the inherent and continuous red gene of the people’s procuratorial system, and the most fundamental guarantee for the stability and long-term development of people’s procuratorial work. . In the new era and new journey, the procuratorial organs must clearly put the strengthening of the party’s political construction in the first place, strengthen the awareness of political organs, unswervingly uphold the party’s absolute leadership over the procuratorial work, and resolutely defend the “two establishments” by being able to perform their duties. Continue to in-depth study, think and practice Xi Jinping’s thoughts on socialism with Chinese characteristics in the new era, fully implement Xi Jinping’s thoughts on the rule of law, insist on the organic integration of politics and business, and ensure that all procuratorial work is “politically viewed” and strengthen the “four consciousnesses”, Strengthening the “four self-confidences” and achieving the “two maintenances” are actually implemented through the entire process of procuratorial work, always obey the Party Central Committee’s command, resolutely implement the Party Central Committee’s decision-making and deployment, and consciously maintain a high level with the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping as the core Unanimously, and by performing procuratorial functions, they resolutely shoulder the major political responsibility of ensuring the overall leadership of the party through legal supervision.
Always adhere to the power of the rule of law to serve the overall work of the party and the country. The “Resolution” emphasizes: “The comprehensive rule of law is the essential requirement and important guarantee of socialism with Chinese characteristics.” The procuratorial organ is an important force for comprehensively governing the country according to law, and serving the overall situation with the power of the rule of law is a historical mission that must be undertaken. The history of the people’s procuratorial work in the 1990s is a history of the performance of the party’s leading procuratorial organs to ensure the overall situation of China’s revolution, construction, and reform. History has profoundly demonstrated that it is the bounden duty of procuratorial organs to focus on the center and serve the overall situation, and is the fundamental requirement for performing their duties in accordance with the law. No matter how the situation changes, the mission of the procuratorial organs to safeguard the overall situation of the party and the state cannot be changed. In the new era and new journey, procuratorial organs must always have the “big nation” in mind, fully, accurately and comprehensively implement the new development concept, and take the initiative and perform their duties in the process of accelerating the construction of a new development pattern and promoting high-quality development. Adhere to the overall national security concept, focus on outstanding issues that affect national security, social stability, and people’s peace, severely punish crimes that seriously endanger social order, and promote the construction of a higher level of safe China. Coordinate and promote the equal protection of the legal rights and interests of all types of enterprises, deepen the pilot reform of the compliance of the enterprises involved, strengthen the comprehensive protection of intellectual property rights, improve and improve the securities case inspection system and other tasks to help the sustainable and healthy development of the economy and society. Based on the supervision of case handling, deepen active justice, deepen the governance of the source of litigation, and promote the continuous improvement of the effectiveness of national governance.
Always adhere to the people-centered approach and practice the fundamental purpose of justice for the people. Upholding the people’s supremacy is one of the historical experiences of the party’s centuries of struggle. In the past 100 years, all struggles, sacrifices, and creations made by the Chinese people in unity and leadership of the Chinese Communist Party have been for the happiness of the Chinese people and the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. The 90-year history of people’s procuratorial work is a history of the party’s leadership of the procuratorial organs for the people’s justice and constantly satisfying the people’s yearning for a better life. History has profoundly shown that people’s nature is the essential attribute of procuratorial organs, and the people must always be placed in the highest position in their hearts, the satisfaction or dissatisfaction of the people must be regarded as the criterion for procuratorial work, and the people’s yearning for a better life must be continuously satisfied. In the new era and new journey, the procuratorial organs must bear in mind that the people’s mind is the greatest politics, adhere to the people-centered development ideology in supervision and handling of cases, and better maintain and promote people’s democracy throughout the process. We will effectively handle the “small cases” around the masses, strive to achieve an organic unity of law, reason, and sentiment, and strive to let the masses of people feel fairness and justice in every judicial case. Keeping pace with the development of the times, while severely punishing serious criminal offences and enhancing the people’s sense of security, we firmly implement the system of plea guilty and punishing leniency, and the criminal justice policy of “less arrests, prosecutions and detentions” to maintain social harmony and stability. We will continue to do a good job in procuratorial work for the people, such as “responding to all cases”, substantive resolution of administrative disputes, comprehensive judicial protection of minors, judicial assistance, public hearings, support for prosecution, and protection of the legal rights and interests of migrant workers. The masses of the people are desperately looking forward to problems, and they have firmly planted the political foundation of the party’s long-term governance.
Always adhere to the constitutional positioning of procuratorial organs, and comprehensively improve the quality and effectiveness of legal supervision. The socialist procuratorial system with Chinese characteristics is a great pioneering work of our party in exploring a socialist democratic politics and power supervision system that suits the national conditions in the past century. It is a successful practice in advancing the Sinicization of Marxist theory of state and law. The history of people’s procuratorial work in the 1990s is a pioneering history of the party-led procuratorial organs continuously improving and perfecting their legal supervision functions and ensuring the unified and correct implementation of national laws. History shows profoundly that legal supervision by procuratorial organs is an important part of the party and state supervision system. Under the leadership of the party, the integrative supervision of law enforcement and judicial organs’ case-handling activities is carried out. The procuratorial organ is a specialized supervisory organ that performs its duties in litigation procedures. This is the distinctive feature and obvious superiority of our country’s people’s procuratorial system. In the new era and new journey, procuratorial organs must perform legal supervision duties entrusted by the Constitution and laws in accordance with the law, better safeguard social fairness and justice, and safeguard judicial justice and credibility. Persist in focusing on supervision and handling of cases, supervise and handle cases under supervision, and promote the comprehensive and coordinated development of the “four major prosecutors” in criminal, civil, administrative, and public interest litigation. Adhere to the courage to supervise, be good at supervising, and have the courage to carry out self-supervision, promote more effective and effective supervision of law enforcement and judicial control, and earnestly solve the prominent problems that the people in the field of the rule of law have strongly complained about. Strengthen the use of big data, and empower legal supervision in the new era with the “digital revolution.”
Always insist on strengthening the construction of a competent procuratorial team and the construction of basic-level procuratorates. Looking back on the centuries of party history, one of the key factors for our party’s continuous development and growth, from victory to victory, is to continuously strengthen party building, cultivate a team of cadres that adapt to complex situations and tasks, and play the role of grassroots party organizations as a battle fortress. The history of people’s procuratorial work in the 1990s is a history of growth in which the party-led procuratorial organs strengthened team building and institution building, continued to build their souls, strengthen their foundations, and consolidate their foundations. History has shown profoundly that: iron must be hardened by oneself, building a strong team is the eternal theme of procuratorial work, and strengthening the construction of grassroots procuratorates is always on the way. In the new era and new journey, procuratorial organs must conscientiously implement the spirit of a series of important instructions of General Secretary Jinping on the construction of political and legal teams, continue to strengthen the construction of a strong team, and strive to build a high-quality procuratorial iron army that can reassure the Party Central Committee and satisfy the people. Integrate and promote the study and education of party history and the education and rectification of the procuratorial team, continue to deepen the comprehensive and strict management of party governance and inspection, and strengthen political literacy and professional capabilities. Pay more attention to the guidance of strong foundations, strengthen grassroots organizations, basic work, and basic capacity building, and promote the continuous improvement of the level of grassroots procuratorates. Strengthen the assessment of prosecutors, deepen the use of the “case-to-case ratio” quality and efficiency evaluation standard, and continuously improve the prosecutorial productivity and combat effectiveness through scientific management.
Always uphold and improve the socialist procuratorial system with Chinese characteristics. Taking one’s own path is the basis of all the party’s theory and practice, and it is the historical conclusion drawn by the party’s centuries of struggle. Socialism with Chinese characteristics is the choice of history and the people, and it is the only way to realize the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. The history of the people’s procuratorial work in the 1990s is an institutional history of the party-led procuratorial organs promoting the continuous enrichment and development of the socialist procuratorial system with Chinese characteristics. History has profoundly demonstrated that the socialist procuratorial system with Chinese characteristics is in full compliance with the reality of our country, in accordance with the wishes of the people, in accordance with the law of rule of law, with strong vitality and significant superiority. It stands tall in the world‘s judicial system with a unique Chinese style. We must cherish it, Always persevere and never waver. In the new era and new journey, procuratorial organs must use the spirit of reform and innovation to promote a more mature and finalized socialist procuratorial system with Chinese characteristics in the new era. Comprehensively grasp, consolidate, and deepen the reform of the judicial system, and promote the people’s procuratorial cause to keep pace with the times. From the centuries of party history and 90 years of people’s procuratorial history, we should find out the development context, follow the law of development, build a more scientific and complete socialist procuratorial theory system with Chinese characteristics, and better serve the socialist rule of law and procuratorial practices with Chinese characteristics.
The best commemoration of history is to continue to struggle and create a new history. The people’s procuratorial system under the absolute leadership of the party has survived winds and rains for 90 years, and has moved forward for 90 years. It embodies the party’s struggle and exploration in the field of rule of law, and carries the glory and dreams of generations of prosecutors. The mission of the new era is already on our shoulders, and the new Long March is under our feet. We must unite more closely around the Party Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at the core, forge ahead in a new era, take a new journey, promote the higher-quality development of the socialist procuratorial cause with Chinese characteristics, and make new progress in the new journey of building a modern socialist country in an all-round way. Greater contribution.
